When nightmares strike, the Guardians awaken.

My Guardian Ninja is an action | fantasy | horror series for young readers that follows crochet ninja dolls, imbued with the souls of the greatest fictional warriors to have ever lived, as they protect children from the monsters and nightmares that come out at night.

Written in an anthology format, each book focuses on a different Guardian Ninja from a unique time and place in history — and a different child in need of protection. The first book, The Goblin’s Trap, follows Blue, a crochet ninja doll brought to life by the spirit of Toshiro — a legendary samurai from feudal Japan — as he investigates the nightmarish disturbances haunting young Ethan in his sleep.

With rich lore, haunting villains, and a balance of suspense and heart, My Guardian Ninja blends supernatural adventure with emotional growth. These coming-of-age stories introduce kids to cultures around the world, empower them to face their fears, and remind them they’re never truly alone.

Step into a world where the Great Sorcerer wages a secret war to keep the Cosmic Dragon from destroying Earth — and where his Guardian Ninjas protect the innocent in the dead of night.
